O'Clock

We’re broadcasting today from the Round the World Department of Research and Development, and our in-house scientists and engineers have been working on a device that will accelerate the passage of time. They are claiming that in the space of one hour, we will be able to experience at least 24 hours of music. So, we will be trying out this ground-breaking device, which is in a blue cast-iron explosion-proof housing, and kind of looks like a swollen foot, with a few holes for test cables.
